Be Early To Get The Limited Edition 'SG50 x DEPRESSION' T-Shirts ~~~

Hi Huneybees,

Ready for SG50? If you are looking for something to wear this August, why not take a look at Singapore fashion label - DEPRESSION commemorative T-shirt collection titled 'SG50 x DEPRESSION'. 

The challenge?  To design 50 different limited edition t-shirts to celebrate Singapore's 50th Birthday. From pop art to street wear, the team spent 1 year to research and created these special Singaporean designs that will resonate with every single of us.  There's even 3 special Mr. Lee Kuan Yew tribute pieces!

"Lee Kuan Yew is the founding father of Modern Singapore and the only man I'll ever respect. It is our honor to be able to pay tribute to him through art and fashion" --- Kenny Lim, designer of Depression 

“We are very proud to call Singapore home, and in fact, Kenny and I were there to brave the rain during the final send off. One of the designs is dedicated to that Sunday. And I also hope this collection will give Singaporeans and foreigners living here a better appreciation and understanding of our culture” --- Andrew Loh, designer of Depression

The entire DEPRESSION team (including the design, retail and merchandising departments) has come together for the first time to contribute their ideas to keep it uniquely Singaporean. Do look out for some of the designers’ favorite pieces like the quirky ‘I Love Laksa’, ‘Heartlander’ and ‘Lorong Lew Lian’!

But here's the catch, there is only 1 piece for each design is available only in one piece! You have got to be early to grab the design that you fancy. These t-shirts will be retailing at at S$89 each and will be available from July at SECTS SHOP located at Orchard Gateway.

[Get The Look] Goodbye Mr Lee Kuan Yew Nail Art

Hi Huneybees,

Last week was a tough week to get through as the nation waves goodbye to our founding father - Mr Lee Kuan Yew. He was cremated last Sunday and aside from dressing in black, I also did a set of monochrome nails as a tribute to him.

This black ribbon image was circulated around social media within a few hours, so I wanted to do my set of nail art, revolving around the image. But getting the image drawn right is definitely not easy to do freehand. So, I wana show ya my little trick, this might be able to help those who find it difficult to draw with your left hand (if you are right handed) too.

1. After measuring nail bed size, I got the image shrunk down to around that size and did a tracing of the image (you can draw instead of tracing too!).
2. Find a transparent file and slot the drawing in between, or you can use a plastic bag as well.
3. Paint a layer of the topcoat on the plastic file, covering more than the drawing.
4. Using acrylic paint or nail polish, start painting and draw up your image.
5. Once dried, paint a layer of topcoat again, covering more of your drawing dimension.
6. Let the image dry. Normally it takes up to 2 hours, but I like to let it dry over night.
7. Using a tweezer, slowly pull up the image, starting from the corners and work your way in. Do not pull too hard as you might break it.
8. After painting your base nail colour, apply a thin layer of top coat for the newly made "sticker" to stick on.
9. Press down to remove bubbles and trim the size if it's too big.
10. Once done, apply topcoat and you are done!
    
    Note: I did a little touch up on the drawing after sticking on, so that the image fills up the thumb. 

Voila! This is a close up of the other fingers. I did a PAP symbol as well and freehand drew on those black ribbons and Singapore Flag. Hope this little trick helps you to perfect your DIY nail art, bringing your work to another level. 

Do you guys have any other tricks to share? Would love to hear about it. :)
